Amen, @mpompadour !! Preach!

Well, "Melissa" is back at it again. I knew it was too good to last. High maxbids on lots of items. And when she wins I'm betting they won't be purchased. Are you secretly in cahoots with her, @Zoe ???

Well, mpompadour , I suppose there is some consolation that it is happening to others of us!? I guess at this point we can only hold our breath and hope we receive what we really ordered. It's strange that other shopping channels don't seem to have this much trouble displaying live and online each c...

Amy , the same thing is happening to me! I got an email that I had a kaftan on the way--and it was that blasted elephant one! I had not ordered it either!

Thank you, @mpompadour and @Tothemoon --you've both summarized problems with the rising auctions very well. Bravo!

Zoe I have noticed I don't see "Melissa" popping up as often in the gemstone offerings I usually bid on in the auctions, so maybe you're right and she's mended her annoying ways. I sure hope so! It would make the auctions fairer and more fun. Thanks Zoe for bringing it to Shop LC's attention! :)

I wish there were consequences. Apparently not.

Glad we have similar good taste in jewelry, @Zoe ! Just a suggestion, but may want to make sure you're replying on a thread and not starting a whole new thread/topic when replying! These boards can get tricky!

Moderator_Jazzman , I have noticed the very same things Zoe has. This "Melissa" is the worst about bidding up tons of items in the RA, especially in quartz and topaz. She places ridiculously high maxbids and then obviously does not purchase them because the identical item shows up a couple of days ...

Yes!!! Thank god someone else has complained about Melissa!! She puts these very high maxi bids on a huge amount of merchandise especially quartz and topaz rings. But she never buys them. They are always relisted!! I have complained twice to customer service through “chat” and they have assured me ...
